If you're in California, you can check how much you would pay with the automatic federal subsidy added in by going to www.coveredca.com. For most people making an average wage, it's the same or less than you're paying now, for the same or better coverage, with national providers like blue cross, blue shield, and anthem, etc.

Lol@ unions..they fought corporate America for 60 years just to have one of theirs destroy all the work. No more full time jobs, no more good benefits ... The only ones that will get healthcare as a job benefit would be the very skilled employee. The same employee that makes 6 figures anyway. Rich will get richer and poor .... will get $1000 per year to buy a $8k health coverage. See walgreens and not only

Any coupons for Bogo or free 1 month trials. What about cashback or price matching other states.

Under previous private insurance, a 30 year old could get insurance for $60 per month. Now you can't get it for less than $90.

Thank you obamacare!

So this is the obamacare website that everyone is going to have to use to get healthcare. Everyone needs to do this correct (that don't have healthcare)?

Democrats shouldn't be allowed on slickdeals because they are not good for my wallet. Angry This is the monster you have created. Less money in all of our pockets.

Website already crashing and burning. Website won't go past "Apply Now" button... just keeps trying to load. And most of the East Coast is already asleep too. What a POS!
